Description
While estimates vary, many suggest that $100 trillion will be required to transition to a clean energy/carbon neutral environment by 2040-50. This course will cover the potential sources of this capital as well as where it will need to be invested from solar and wind (on and off-shore), to hydrogen, renewable natural gas, storage and transmission, to carbon capture. Included will be the structural alternatives for these investments and the U.S. government’s role in incentivizing and subsidizing the energy transition.
